    New and shiny blower snout. Now I have to decide do I want to polish other aluminum parts too? Helluva job, I think...

    Ah don't polish it just blast it and make it dull then its easier to clean, just some carb cleaner later, works 4 me..........

    "If I polish all parts it will look soooo cool! But, I hate sanding.... " me too in fact I even want to blast the intake scoop because its one less thing to polish! I just use carb cleaner on the rest, makes it easy........

    I put license plate there. It doesn't appear in picture very good, but there's black metal web in radiator shell, and when I paint radiator black too it would seem all black, I think..
